Extreme somatic mutation variation through time and space in walnut clones

2025-07-26

Abstract excerpt

Many plants, unlike most animals, can reproduce as clones 1 . Cloning plants is critical for agriculture 2,3 and biotechnology 4 , but the extent of somatic mutation arising during different propagation methods remains an important question for both fundamental research and agriculture. Here, we discover a surprisingly complex mutational history in a multi-decade natural experiment of isogenic walnut clones der...
